 It’s Monday, and while normally, that just means the weekend is over and your smile is dead, for the next few weeks, it also means that Direct2Drive’s discounting new batches of games. Hooray!

This week, the five dollar frenzy continues with an influx of MMOs, RPGs, and – for some reason – Assassin’s Creed and GTA: Vice City. But whatever – we’re not complaining. The full list of additions is as follows:

• Neverwinter Nights 2
• Neverwinter Nights 2: Storm of Zehir
• Assassin's Creed Director's Cut
• Elven Legacy
• EVE Online
• Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures
• Titan Quest Bundle
• Planetside: Aftershock
• Drakensang: The Dark Eye
• Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

Direct2Drive’s throwing a big bash for its fifth anniversary, and boy howdy are the goodie bags sweet. More than 50 games – ranging from BioShock to Thief: Deadly Shadows to X-Com – are having their price tags slashed down to $5.00. How can you say “no” to that? You can’t. Hell, we’ve already not said “no” to it four or five times.

Over the next few weeks, D2D will be adding more fuel to this money-saving fire, going by a genre theme. So, next week you can expect a spat of nearly-free RPGs and MMOs, and the week after that, it’s indie games, etc.

Now go! Take advantage of Direct2Drive’s momentary celebration-fueled lapse of sanity. It may sound cliché, but these prices really are cuuuurazy.
